Marriage
I remember back when I was a child I'd close my eyes tight and say, "I wish I may, I wish I might" - thinking those words would save the day.
Of course it never worked at all, for the focus was all wrong, to receive the blessings that were mine, I needed to place my hope where it belonged.
I didn't learn the lesson back then, growing up, I went my own way, thinking I could actually do it all, I was sufficient in every way.
But my life seemed always to go all wrong, the things I wanted I could not do, the more I tried, the less it worked, how to fix it, I had not a clue.
But Jesus did, and He bided His time, till I finally asked for help from above,
and instantly He was there with me, wrapping me up in His love.
He wiped away the tears from my eyes, and made me a creature brand new,
and then He whispered a wondrous thing - this is just the beginning of what I've planned for you!
All I need to was to follow Him, keep my eyes always on His goal for me, and bit by bit, my outside life changed, to reflect the inside He'd set free.
All of this was set in motion, just so one thing would become true, for He had a gift so wonderful for me, He'd always planned to give me you!
Now, hand in hand, we both follow Him, keeping ourselves in the circle of His light, and doing this, our life is a joy, and our future with Him so very bright.
I thank God each day for all the gifts and blessings each day brand new,
and most of all, for the love filling my life, that all comes from loving you!
